ABANDON TRIP
0VEy.P0LE
Capt. Amundsen Forced to
Abandon Airplane Trip for
This Year Hopes to Hop
Off Next Spring Weather
Conditions Bad.
NOM13, Alnnka,' Aug. 29. (By the
Associated Press) Ciiptaln Hon Id
Amundsen, Norwegian explorer, has
definitely abandoned for this year
his plan for an airplane fllKht from
northern Alaska across tho north
polo to Spitsbergen or Grants Land
but plans to hop off next spring, it
becamo known today with tho ar
rivul hero of .tho coast guard cutter
Bear from Point Barrow.
Captain Amundsen told tho cor
respondent of the Associated Press,
who Joined tho Bear at Point Barrow
that tho start had been been delayed
by unfavorable lee conditions and
that the season was too far advunued
to permit chances for success. Ico
conditions, he said mllltuted aKalnst
tho chances of a successful landing
at either Spitsbergen or Grants land.
- Captain Amundsen landed1 his
piano, and equipment at WalnwriRht,
100 miles southwest of Point Bur
row nnd will make that point the
base for his flight.
Radio advices from tho Maud,
Captain Amundsen's exploration ship,
Indicate the vessel Is frozen In the
ico near Wrangell Island, off the
northeastern Siberian coast, and not
off Point Hope, Alaska as was pre
viously reported. This fits In with
the plans of the explorer, who ex
pected the ship to start somewhere
near Wrangell Island, the long drift
with the Arctic ice pack across the
north polar basin.
Extensive research will bo mad by
the scientists aboard the Mnud with
particular emphasis on the study of
ocean and air currents and meteoro
logical conditions at the "top of the
world." The explorer expects to re
join the Maud by airplane some time
next year after tho completion of
his trans-polar flight.
Ice conditions In tho Arctic off the
northern Alaska coast are tho worst
In recent years. Captain Cochran of
the Bear guided his vessel for miles
through tremendous lee floes, reach
ing Point Barrow with the greatest
difficulty.
Passengers for the Bear were fi
nally transferred to the ship by dog
sled after several attempts had failed
Tho trading schooner Herman was
caught In tho tee near Point Barrow
August 22 and narrowly escaped
being crushed between the huge
floes. A shift of the wind saved
the vessel nnd sho made Point Bar
row safely.
FRANCE READY TO
ACTION ON
PARIS, Aug. 30. (By Associated

from the fact that the German dele
gates here had advanced no new pro
posals acceptable to France.
